Use TaskDelete to delete a task.

 

TaskDelete may also be entered as TaskDel[ete], TaskPur[ge], DeleteT[ask], DelT[ask], PurgeT[ask], or PurT[ask].

 

Required Operands

 

TASK is the number of the task to delete.  (The TaskLibrary command displays information about all active tasks.)

 

TaskDelete can also be invoked by entering the ContextDelete command while a TaskLibrary session is current.

 

If a given task is unable to log itself off (for example, the terminal is out of service or the task is in a loop in a BIM-EDIT procedure), it may be necessary to delete the task.  The user can then log on again.  (Until the task is terminated, the user will not be able to log on, because BIM-EDIT will not allow a user to be logged on from two terminals at the same time.)

 

Note that all tasks are automatically deleted when BIM-EDIT is shut down.

 

TaskLibrary can be used to display the current tasks.

 

When Valid

 

The user must have OPER or ADM command access level.

 

Return Codes

 

OK Successful.

NF Task not found.
